    Outside signage

    I stopped by this place to grab a quick bite before work. Thankfully it wasn't too busy and the people were friendly. They quickly took my order upon arrival but I had to wait an extra 10 min for their credit card machine to get up and running. No issues with that though since i was able to chat w/ another patron while I waited. I didn't end up getting a typical waffle breakfast. I order the detox and skinny morning breakfast sandwich. Both were might tasty and worth the quick walk from the hotel. Wish I had taken pictures but I guess I was too hungry.

    Great and affordable option for a quick breakfast/brunch. Very friendly staff. The restaurant itself is very small so you have to sit outside, which was not a problem for us.

    Skinny Morning breakfast sandwich

    Was looking for a smoothie in the area when I found Waffler Ave. I ordered the fruit smoothie (which I believe has strawberry and banana in it), as well as the skinny morning breakfast sandwich. Both were good but the smoothie was the best that I've ever had. I loved the smoothie so much that I went back the next day for another one. I love how close this place is to the beach. I went to go sit at the beach after I ordered my food. Whenever I'm back in San Juan, I will definitely stop by again.

    It's a small spot more for take out. You can eat outside with a nice view. It's close to beach. The service is quick and they have friendly staff. For 2 meals we paid $14. It is reasonable. They smoothies a so bowls, platters and sandwiches. I had turkey bacon, egg whites and toast. It was pretty good. I would return if I'm in the area. The only negative is there are birds close to the area preying on your food.

    I'll start with the service. You go in it's a small place but you only go in to order. They have platters, sandwiches oatmeal and etc. I had turkey bacon with egg whites and hash browns. All that was $10 and it was good.

    I had the best açaí bowl that I've ever had here. Now, it's a hole in the wall...I mean, you can hardly turn around in there. There's no seating inside..they have outdoor seating but you'd better love pigeons a whole lot to sit out there. I mean, the pigeons are everywhere. My açaí bowl with peanut butter along with the included toppings (I know it's weird but it's my thing..don't judge me) was delicious. This bowl was loaded and it wasn't too expensive. The employees were very nice too, which is always a plus. I'm pretty sure I'll be going back to get another one before I leave Puerto Rico.

    Fresh juice (passion fruit I think )

    This is a cute place to grab breakfast. It's not a dine in establishment. The inside is actually so small that once you order you have to wait outside for your meal. I ordered waffle with bacon and eggs and it was delicious. The fresh juice was also really delicious. I would definitely come back here again next time I'm in PR

    You know a place is good when you see a line forming out the door at 7 am. We went there and it did not disappoint! We liked it so much so we went there a few more times. Their oatmeal is amazing, I just couldn't have enough of it. My son kept on refilling himself with the French toast. If you eat here, you won't regret it.

    Loved the Geneva sidewalk stuffed waffler!!! The rest of the food and coffee was good. Nice area to sit outside. Chicken's walking around haha. The area to order food inside is a bit cramped.

    Unique and tasty offerings in a small, but still adequate size, location. It is in a rather busy part of the tourist section, in easy walking distance to several hotels and shopping areas. Nice selection of breakfast items (service all day) as well as some fun treats. Limited places to sit and dine, so a To-Go plan might be best for most.

    GF Acai Bowl $11.89
    Prithi D.

    Walking distance from our hotel. Prices super reasonable for a quick, satisfying breakfast/brunch. They made the Acai Bowl without granola which made it gluten free. The breakfast sanwiches were yummy and came with chips. The pick three option hit the spot for only $9.89! It is just a counter in the place - no place to sit but there were a few benches outside and a beautiful green space to enjoy your meal.

    Tourist trap. Low quality food. Service is super super slow and poor. It's located next to the beach so they can still get business for poor quality. Came here and got a smoothie, took 25min to get my 1 smoothie and it tasted like sugar water. No substance. And still cost $7. Staff is rude, to be expected. No parking near here. Only reason this place is still in business is because of its proximity to the beach.

    Cute corner cafe downtown San Juan! We had their signature hazelnut coffee! It was so delicious you can smell the hazelnut in the steaming cup! Service was quick although it was a busy morning. So glad our tour guide stopped here to let us off the bus to see the ocean and have a sip of this delightful brew!

    EXPECTATIONS WERE LOW. BUT. I made my own cup, chose taro ice cream and added pocky, condensed…read moremilk, and boba on top. I need to re-emphasize that I had such low expectations, especially for the taro ice cream, but it was excellent. It had that taro flavor that you wouldn't think a random ice cream shop in condado would get right, but. they. did. I loved that they let you add boba as a topping to the ice cream. I personally didn't try their boba drinks but having the boba with my ice cream definitely scratched the boba itch I had during the trip. My gripes with this place aren't really with the ice cream itself (though I am salty about the fact that 'pocky topping' is just two sticks of pocky jammed into the cup), it's mostly about the experience. Rolled ice cream is cool and all, but what we pay for isn't really the ice cream: it's the experience. Watching them pour the liquid ice cream onto the cold surface, chop it, spread it, and roll it is what we're paying for. And Below Zero has blocked off the area where you'd usually watch them work. I think maybe it's because of COVID that they blocked off half of the store, but it just feels disappointing. Was definitely pricey, but having good taro ice cream was worth it.

    After a lackluster dinner down the street my niece and I stopped in to Below Zero for a fun…read moredessert. There was a line to enter. Due to COVID restrictions only 1 party was allowed to enter at a time. The menu was conveniently posted outside so making a decision was easy before entering. Once inside there is a place to take temperature and sanitize hands ( this is very common around the island). After placing our order we were handed a beeper and waited outside. The weight was long, I'd estimate 10-15 mins. The ice cream was really good and I would highly recommend, just be prepared to wait.

Everything we ordered was very good, and on an extremely hot day, I was especially appreciative of how well the A/C was keeping up. I was actually a little cold--and I'm never cold. It felt so nice after getting overheated right before we got there. One thing I noticed while wandering around Old San Juan is that some restaurants likely survive on location and foot traffic alone, while others earn people seeking them out. Semilla definitely felt like the latter. It's tucked just around the corner from some of the busiest pedestrian areas, so it felt like we escaped the crowds for a little while without actually going very far. Overall, I'd happily come back. If you're staying nearby and looking for a good meal without being surrounded by the busiest tourist crowds, Semilla is well worth checking out.

    It was such a delicious treat! This gelato shop is located on Ashford Avenue in Condado. There were…read moremounds of gelato with so many unique flavors & combinations. We just couldn't pass it up. So, let's talk about the history. It all started out as "Anita La Mamma del Gelato" in Tel Aviv back in 2002. "La Mamma del Gelato" that you see on the walls inside this shop represent the mother (Anita Avital) & son (Nir) duo who started it all. It's grown to many more locations to include NYC and Miami. There's even a sub-brand of Anita Gelato called "Golda Gilda" that is very popular in Israel. I have to be honest when stating that I've never heard of either gelato brands until seeing this shop near our hotel. We each decided to get the smallest cup size that includes 2 flavors. I selected Pavlova Mixed Berries and Chocolate Pistachio & Kadayif. There was a white chocolate version of it as well, but I decided to stick with the traditional milk chocolate. I don't remember what flavors my husband picked out. I'm pretty sure he enjoyed them as much as I enjoyed mine. I especially loved the chocolate pistachio one. That layer of pistachio cream & crispy kadayif was delightful. I didn't taste any pavlova in the mixed berry gelato, but it was still wonderful. They're very good about giving out samples for those who are unsure and want to get the perfect flavor. I wish we had returned to try more. It was a delicious & relaxing experience. The service was great. There's plenty of seating inside and outside. We fortunately arrived in the late afternoon when it wasn't too busy. Definitely do not pass this one up when in Condado.

    My Son recommended this place so we went to try it out and we're glad we did. There was a line to…read morethe door and it wasn't in the best organized fashion as people that were trying to exit had to go through people that were waiting in line.

I tried the hazelnut mousse flavor and it was delicious. It had crunchy pieces throughout and was overall a 10/10.
